Guidance on cyber security, marketing and social media is available for free in a new mentoring programme for small businesses being launched by BT.
The programme - available to BT customers - is in partnership with Digital Boost, a free non-profit platform which unites digital experts with leaders of small businesses.
BT has pledged to deliver free one-to-one coaching sessions to at least 1,000 small businesses and retailers are urged to register their interest.
The initiative is part of its Small Business Support Scheme, which launched last summer.
Experts across BT will offer mentoring on topics, including cyber security, marketing, social media, strategy, and more.
Digital Boost will connect small businesses with the relevant BT expert via its free online platform, where small businesses are able to register their interest in booking a free virtual mentoring session.
